Chapter 353: Some Losses

In the imperial study, except for Zhan Kangwen, no one else spoke.

The emperor has made it clear that new glass technology must be developed.

The current situation is that Qingyunzhai does not have this ability. Looking at the emperor's iron-hearted appearance, the emperor must get half of the proceeds of this large transaction.

Even if, as Zhan Kangwen said, he joins a businessman to cooperate, there is still no available manpower for their cooperation.

There is no solution to this at all.

Zhan Kangwen knew that there was no solution, and he couldn't think of a better way.

But he can be with the mud.

"As a new industry, His Majesty has a unique vision and sees that if we vigorously develop and update technology, it will be very beneficial to the country and the people. ”

These few words, Zhan Kangwen himself has to believe that the words he just said are the emperor's own wise decision.

He went on to say, "Therefore, Your Majesty has ordered the selection of an imperial merchant to provide financial resources, and Qingyun Zhai will provide technical guidance, and will provide top craftsmen as a supervisor to jointly develop new glass technology, so that flat glass can be widely used in the people." In addition, the glass industry is an emerging industry with relatively large exclusive profits, so after it is put into operation, it will be handed over to the state treasury in the form of high taxes. ”

This is the mud that Zhan Kangwen came out of. With the addition of a collaborator, the focus of cooperation between the court and merchants was greatly reduced, focusing on the fundamental benefit of the country and the people.

The price is reduced, and the people can afford it, which is for the benefit of the people. Take out a part of the profits and hand them over to the state treasury, which is beneficial to the country.

Others are still reacting, and Qu Jiang has already choked on his own saliva. He coughed so loudly that he almost ran out of breath.

He originally wanted to hear very carefully how Zhan Xiangye, who has always been known for his smoothness, solved this matter.

Who knows, after saying this, the pattern and structure of this matter are exactly the same, but in a different way. Then, the understanding of the masses who do not know the truth is completely different.

What a familiar feeling!

He had been educated by the Xia woman once in the Qingyun Zhai kiln before. Unexpectedly, after a while, he asked Zhan Xiangye to review it for him again.

He couldn't help but be impressed.

No, one accidentally choked on saliva. He covered his face sideways, and coughed breathlessly for a while before he recovered.

The rest of the Imperial Study looked at him with puzzled expressions, not understanding why he was so out of shape.

Even if Zhan Xiangye's level of mud and harmony today is much worse than in the past, it won't surprise him so much, right?

In contrast, the emperor was much calmer, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Qu Jiang being shocked, and he didn't care about it.

Others thought that the emperor had good concentration, but who knew that it was just because Zhan Kangwen's method had been used by Xia Yanqing once.

A woman in a folk workshop and the second assistant of the current dynasty, faced with this matter, gave the same solution...... The emperor understood Qu Jiang's mood.

Although the cooperation explained by Zhan Kangwen can't even be said to change the soup or not the medicine, it sounds lofty.

The focus of this cooperation is no longer to make money and share money, but to highlight the emperor's wisdom and concern for the country and the people.

What is rare is that other emperors are only worried about the country and the people, and most of them just make a statement, without specific measures.

And Emperor Qingyuan is different, after Zhan Xiangye's analysis, the emperor has a way to solve it.

The emperor looked at He Shouli and asked lightly, "Does Lord He have anything to add to this matter?" ”

He Shouli wiped his sweat, feeling that he had once again been defeated by Zhan Kangwen.

also felt that what the emperor said was inappropriate, so he argued with the emperor with iron, and bluntly disagreed, so that the emperor could take back his fate.

And it makes sense for Zhan Kangwen to take apart the emperor's meaning and then rearrange it.

People really can't be compared!

"Your Majesty is wise, after some explanation of this matter, it is really necessary to implement it." He Shouli gritted his back molars and seconded Zhan Kangwen's opinion.

As He Shouli agreed, Gao Qi and Liu Min also praised the emperor's wisdom one after another.

Obviously, it was an afterthought and a sycophant, but the emperor still pinched his nose and accepted it.

The original intention of this was indeed for the sake of the people. But the others were performed for him by the Xia woman and Zhan Kangwen. But if it's nice, don't say no.

Qu Jiang saw that the matter had been decided, and the cough just now made him unable to stay, so he took the opportunity to adjust the affairs of the prison as soon as possible, so he hurriedly resigned.

In fact, if this matter is settled, the prison will indeed have to redeploy the labor, so that Xia Yanqing can be transferred at any time without delaying the normal operation of the prison.

Qu Jiang left, and the emperor and the four ministers also began to seriously discuss the specific arrangements for the matter, as well as the detailed text of the imperial edict.

For Xia Yanqing, the emperor was a little guilty.

Originally, if you cooperate with the general supervisor, Qingyun Zhai will lose half of its income. If you join another imperial businessman, if you are in the same technology, the financial resources of the imperial merchant are by no means comparable to the fledgling Qingyun Zhai.

I am afraid that if the two companies get the technology and produce at the same time, Qingyunzhai's share in the glass industry will also shrink, and it will definitely be lower than the imperial merchants who were forcibly added.

The emperor sighed and said, "In this way, Xia's Qingyun Zhai will be a little lost." ”

At this time, the four prime ministers had already taken their seats.

Hearing the emperor's sigh, Zhan Kangwen hurriedly bowed and said, "The Xia family is not a businessman, and they have a shallow foundation in the business field, if they have a huge amount of money in a short period of time, they will definitely be hated by the people of the world." Giving up part of the interests as soon as possible, or even being a second person who does not get ahead, will definitely be able to reduce a lot of disputes. In the end, the benefits are not necessarily less than those of the first person. ”

That's what it means.

The emperor nodded, at least with him, the Xia family would be able to have more peace because of this. If the Xia family does not become the richest man in the world, the two officials of the Xia family, who are both literate and martial, can also make him more at ease in the future.

"Okay, then Lao Zhan Aiqing will find Xia Ke and talk to him about the arrangement of this matter."

The rest is to select the imperial merchants to participate in this matter.

Although the imperial merchants have a very transcendent status among the people and merchants, they cannot see the emperor's eyes.

The palace needs, small and delicate items, utensils, are all made by the general. The rest of the bulk needs, such as silk and silk, ceramic vessels, wood, masonry and even glazed tiles, were purchased from outside.

These things are basically the responsibility of the household department, and the selection of suppliers, that is, the imperial merchants. After purchasing goods from the imperial merchants, they were handed over to the internal officials.

Like clothing, it was sent directly to the palace. The masonry and timber will be received by the internal officials and supervisors for the next construction.

The emperor didn't know what the imperial merchants were, but he could grasp a general direction, "Let's discuss this matter with the household department to see if there are any similar businesses among the imperial merchants." ”

He Shouli agreed.

The emperor paused, and added, "Choose a business with a good reputation and reputation, don't make trouble for the Xia family's women, so that she can do things quietly." ”

He Shouli and the others were originally making their own calculations, but when they heard the emperor's addition, they couldn't help but be a little more cautious.

The emperor's intention to maintain Qingyun Zhai is very obvious.

If the person they recommended had a conflict with the Xia clan during the development process, it was conceivable who the emperor would favor.
